Widowed Mothers* Fund Association, Inc. 

190-194 BOWERY 

Organized for the purpose of keeping intact the homes 
of destitute but worthy widowed mothers and their children, 
cuid to prevent the cruel necessity of committing half- 
orphaned children to public institutions. The Association 
maintains that the loss of the breadwinner is not sufficient 
cause for the breaking up of homes. Adequate and regular 
relief, and the knowledge that there are women who will pro- 
tect her, enable the widowed mother to preserve the integrity 
of the family life, in which alone there is hope and inspiration. 

The records of the Association show that it has prevented 

the breaking up of over three hundred and fifty homes, and 

has kept a thousand children at home with their mothers. 

Funds are urgently needed to continue the good work.

Har Moriah Hospital. 

138 East 2nd Street., New York 

The Har Moriah Hospital was organized in 1 909 by 
the Federation of Galician and Bucovinaen Jews of 
America for the purpose of maintaining a hospital for all 
general hospital cases. The institution is supported by vol- 
untary contributions, and while it is under the jurisdiction of 
the Galician Verband, patients are admitted to the hospital 
irrespective of race, creed or color. 

During its short period of existence the hospital has 
treated in the wards 2,869 cases, representing all nationali- 
ties. The Har Moriah Hospital Dispensary, which is 
open daily, except Sundays and holidays, has treated 50,652 
cases. In addition, 1 2,043 emergency or accident cases 
have been treated, making a grand total of 54,764 persons 
who have received medical attention in the Har Moriah 
Hospital and Dispensary. 

The hospital also maintains a Training School for 
Nurses, chartered by the State Board of Education. The 
school is non-sectarian, but most of the young women in 
training are of the Jewish faith. 

The hospital is thoroughly equipped with all the 
modern appliances, including Ex-Ray apparatus. Pathologi- 
cal Laboratory, Hydro-Therapeutic Department, making the 
hospital as complete as any of the large modern institutions 
in the City of New York. 

The attending staff includes some of the men most 
prominent in the practice of their profession in Greater 
New York. 



Vttl 



During the period of the hospital's existence no less than 
2, 1 00 cases had to be refused admission owing to lack of 
room. 

Funds for a new modern building large enough to 
accommodate all acute hospital cases that apply for admis- 
sion are urgently needed. In such a building the hospital 
would be able to house many patients who are Orthodox 
and wish to observe the Jewish dietary law, but who are 
now compelled, for lack of room in this institution, to go to 
non- Jewish institutions that show little respect for the reli- 
gious traditions of these patients 

The Har Moriah Hospital also maintains a Social 
Workers' Bureau, the function of which is to care for 
the families of the patients who are inmates of the hospital 
and then to follow the patients home after their discharge 
from the hospital, and to assist them financially and other, 
wise during the period of their convalescence.

Introductory Note* 



In offering this Directory to the Jews of New York, The Jew- 
ish Community (Kehillah) aims to supply a real need, a need that 
has been evidenced by the interest in the work displayed not only by 
the professional social worker, but also by Jews of all classes and 
professions. It is hardly necessary to emphasize the practical value 
of such a guide-book, for besides enabling one to come into speedy 
touch with any Jewish organization in Greater New York in which 
he may be interested, it also presents in the most comprehensive 
and conclusive manner all the organized forces of the greatest Jew- 
ish community of the world. And from the latter circumstance, this 
guide-book, it is hoped, will be found to possess a moral value also, 
for by revealing to the Jew his own organized strength, it will spur 
him on to greater and more perfect achievement in this field. 

The scheme of classification that has been adopted is very simple, 
and by a mere reference to the table of contents, the reader will be 
quickly guided to the organization he is seeking. It is assumed — 
and it is certainly a safe assumption to make — that one who is 
looking for any particular organization knows in advance whether 
that organization is a congregation, a lodge, a charitable society, an 
educational society, or a mutual benefit society. Organizations de- 
voted to more than one kind of work are mentioned under as many 
headings as they may properly come under. Lodges of the Fraternal 
Orders, and societies affiliated with the local Federations are men- 
tioned under their respective central organizations. The only divi- 
sion that has received detailed sub-classification is the class of charit- 
able organizations, and in order to facilitate the finding of any such 
organization an alphabetical index to charitable and philanthropic 
organizations has been appended at the end. The detailed treatment 
of charitable organizations will enable the reader to locate quickly 
an organization engaged in the particular form of relief work in 
which he may be interested. 

No pretensions are here advanced that this Directory will be 
found to be entirely complete, for as in the case of most undertakings 



JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. 2 

it takes two parties to complete a directory: The compilers and the 
organizations. The first party, the compilers, have made every effort 
to make this directory complete, but the organizations have not al- 
ways responded with the necessary information. Organizations that 
did not supply complete information are distinguished by an as- 
terisk (*) placed before the name. In the case of congregations and 
mutual benefit societies, however, the number of those who did not 
respond is so large that the asterisk has been dispensed with. It 
should be kept in mind, moreover, that this is the first edition of this 
directory and the assurance can be safely made that with the experi- 
ence and knowledge gained from the preparation of the present edi- 
tion, the subsequent ones will be enlarged and perfected, for it is 
hoped that with the recognition and support of the Jewish organiza- 
tions of New York, this directory will be issued annually and will 
thus be made a permanent institution of our community. 

Meanwhile we want to extend our thanks to all those who as- 
sisted us in the gathering of such material as we have been able to 
procure. Our appreciation should also be expressed to the institu- 
tions and business houses that have patronized our advertising pages. 
Acknowledgment should be made of the valuable services rendered 
by Mr. Israel Goldberg in compiling the Directory. This organiza- 
tion also wishes to extend its thanks to Doctor Joseph Jacobs for his 
statistical study of the Jewish population of New York, which will be 
welcomed by all those who are interested, as an important contribu- 
tion to the subject. 

THE JEWISH COMMUNITY (KEHILLAH). 



Jewish Population of New York 

A STATISTICAL STUDY 

BY 
JOSEPH JACOBS. 

I. 

In the year 1902 I startled the Jewish World — not the oecumenical 
assemblage of all Israel but the East Side daily of that name, the English 
page of which I was then editing — by announcing that New York held 
600,000 Jews. This was about twice as much as was thought at the time, 
the "American-Jewish Year-Book" for that year giving only 400,000 
for the whole state, including Rochester, Syracuse, Troy, Elmira, Buf- 
falo, Albany, as well as New York. Yet my estimate was quite conserva- 
tive, being based (for the first time) on the number of deaths and mar- 
riages and confirmed by the reports of the number of Jewish immigrants 
reaching and remaining in this port, which have been kept up for so 
many years by the United Hebrew Charities. 

My estimate has formed the basis of all assertions as to the number 
of Jews in this great city since that time but, whereas previously the 
tendency was to under-rate the Jewish population of New York, of recent 
years an opposite tendency has been shown, and it is not unusual to 
hear of their number being placed at a million or more. It seemed, 
therefore, worth while to re-investigate the subject on the lines of my 
previous inquiries of 1902 and to attempt once more to determine from 
first principles the number of Jews now living in New York. In my 
inquiries I have been aided by many gentlemen, among whom I should 
mention Dr. Guilfoy of the Board of Health, Mr. Israel Goldberg, the 
compiler of the lists of organizations in this Directory; Mr. I. Irving 
Lipschitz, of the Hebrew Sheltering and Immigrant Aid Society, and 
Mr. B. G. Richards, the ever-ready Secretary of the Jewish Com- 
munity. 

As on the preceding occasion, the basis of my investigations is the 
number of Jewish burials. I have been supplied by the Board of Health 
with the number of interments in each of the Jewish burial grounds sur- 
rounding New York between the years 1901-1910 (see Appendix A). 
These range from 7,875 in 1901 to 10,918 in 1910. The increase of 38.4 
per cent, probably indicates an even greater increase in the population 
since the general death rate of the city has gone down in that time from 



4 JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. 

20 to 16 per thousand, while the general social condition of the Jewish 
population has undoubtedly risen, on the whole, during the decade. At 
the death rate of 14 per thousand, which I fixed upon for various good 
reasons, the Jews of New York in 1901 would have numbered 565,000. 
The number of burials in 1910 was 10,918, as before mentioned, but 
there has to be added between 75 and 100 buried in the undenomina- 
tional Cypress Hills cemetery, and 26 buried in Mount Hope cemetery, 
Westchester County, the burial ground of the congregation Temple Israel. 
Adding these we get a total of, roughly speaking, 11,000 for 1910. If 
we may assume that the death rate has decreased to 13.5 per thousand, 
this would give an average Jewish population through the year 1910 
of 820,000, an increase of, roughly speaking, 42 per cent, over the num- 
bers for 1901. I should, perhaps, add here that throughout this study 
round numbers indicate estimates, definite numbers have actually been 
counted. 

It will be observed that while the death rate of the city in general 
has run down from twenty to sixteen per thousand, I have assumed 
that the Jewish death rate has only decreased from 14 to 13.5. I do this 
on the grounds which led me to assume a much lower death rate in 1901 
for Jews than for the general population. They have a larger propor- 
tion of "viable" lives between 15 and 4."), as can be seen from Appendix 
D, and besides this the death rate of infants under 5 is smaller among 
Jews than among the general population. There was, therefore, less 
opportunity for decrease in the death rate in these two directions than in 
the general population of the city. It has been pointed out to me that 
a certain number of Jewish burials take place in non-Jewish cemeteries, 
and even in Potter's Field, but these numbers cannot, by the nature of 
the case, be ascertained, and are not likely to be large enough to 
affect our general result. Jews that are buried in Christian cemeteries 
can scarcely be considered Jews. It is, however, noteworthy that not- 
withstanding the large increase by immigation and excess of births, Jew- 
ish burials have remained stationary during the past five years. This 
might be due either to a continuous decrease in the death-rate or, as 
is more probable, to large migrations from the city. 

We may get a rough check on the above figures by comparing the 
movement of the Jewish marriages during the same period, which rose 
from 5,062 in 1901 to 8,332 in 1910, an increase of no less than 65 per 
cent., indicating, probably, greater accuracy in the enumeration of these 
marriages as well as the improved social condition of the Jews of New 
York. The general marriage rate of the city for 1910 was &.66 per thou- 



JEWISH POPULATION OF NEW YORK. 5 

sand. Applying this figure to the number of Jewish marriages this would 
indicate a Jewish population in that year of 860,000. But there is a 
larger proportion of the Jewesses in a nub-le condition than of the young 
women in the general population though this is counterbalanced by the 
fact that there is a much larger proportion of males to females in the 
Jewish population who are perforce bachelors. I do not think, therefore, 
we can make the Jewish marriage rate much higher than 10 per thousand, 
which would give a population in 1910 of 833,200, a sufficiently near ap- 
proximation to the number arrived at by the death rate, considering the 
hypothetical character of our chief data. We may come to the con- 
clusion, therefore, that on July 1, 1910, the middle of the year, there 
were in New York about 825,000 Jews ; but between July 1, 1910, to 
June 30, 1911, 68,276 Jews arrived at the port of New York, of whom 
probably 70 per cent., 47,500, remained in the city. In addition to this 
the excess of births -over deaths during that period would be about It 
per thousand, which would add 9,900 to the number, so that by July 1st 
of this year the Jews of New York would consist of the following: 

Estimated population, July 1, 1910 825,000 

Jewish immigrants remaining in New York July 1, 1910, to June 

30, 1911 47,500 

Excess of births over deaths, ditto, ditto 9,900 

Total •. 882,400 

But since July 1, 1911, 35,896 Jewish immigrants landed at the 
Port of New York, of whom 10,140 left the city immediately, leaving 
a balance of 25,756 remaining here, in addition to which the excess of 
births over that of deaths during those six months would be at least 
5,000 souls. Allowing for removals, departures and migrations dur- 
ing the same period, a net increase of 24,000 may be assumed, bring- 
ing the Jewish population of Greater New York on January 1, 1912, 
up to 906,400. 

It is probable that the smaller number reached by this method is 
due to the fact that in the list of United Hebrew Charities subscrib- 
ers the above ten names bulk more largely than they would in a 
longer list which would do more justice to the Russian element in 
the Jewish population. This conclusion is confirmed by the just is- 
sued list of members of the Jewish Communal Institutions which con- 
tains 25,000 names, in which the above ten names number only 1,465, 
or 5.86 per cent, of the total. In a still larger list, like that included 



6 JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. 

in Trow's Directory, these names will probably not constitute more 
than 5 per cent. But applying the percentage derived from the list 
of the Jewish Communal Institutions the number of Jews in Man- 
hattan would work out at 620,000 and those of Brooklyn about 240,- 
000, or 860,000 in all. This approximates closely to the results already 
reached by considering the deaths and marriages, considering that 
these directories were probably compiled at the end of 1910. It is, 
however, probable that the distribution of the Jewish population in 
the Boroughs is inadequately represented by this treatment, and we 
may perhaps get nearer by applying the same method to the tele- 
phone book. 

II. 

The remarkable thing about this result is not that it is so large but 
that it is, comparatively speaking, so small. It was estimated in 1877 
that the Jews of New York numbered 80,000. Between the years 1881 
to 1884, 74,310 Jews reached the United States, of whom at least 60,000 
came to New York. From 1885 to 1899, 417,010 reached New York. 
From 1900 to June 30, 1911, 895,179 landed at the port of New York, 
making a total of 1,372,189 who were added by immigration to the orig- 
inal 60,000 Jews reckoned to be in New York in 1877. But not all those 
who landed at New York remained there. Of the 826,558 
arriving in New York during the twenty years between 1885 and 1905 
no less than 227,523 left immediately^ a proportion of 26.4. Applying 
this proportion throughout the whole period this would allow for 
about 350,000 leaving New York at once. But, besides this, a certain 
number are deported, mainly from New York ; thus, during the eleven 
years between 1900 and 1910, 10,140 were thus deported — about 1 per cent, 
of the total Jewish immigration to the United States during that period. 
Besides this, a certain number of those arriving here had already been 
in the United States before and should, of course, not be counted as 
additions to the population. Thus, between the years 1900 and 1908, 
19,365, of the total immigration were of this category out of 895,216, 
or about 2 per cent. Further, a certain number of Jewish immigrantt 
returned to their own countries in the three years, 1908-1910, 19,494 out 
of 245,198, or about 8 per cent. 

An objection might be raised to my reckoning so large a percentage 
of returns to Europe based on the experience of the last three years, 
as applied to the whole of the Jewish immigration. But it is notorious 



JEWISH POPULATION OF NEW YORK. 7 

that the returns are mainly from the port of New York, so that the 
percentage for that city would be even higher than 8 per cent, for the 
past three years, during which alone this item has been given by the 
Commissioner-General of Immigration in his report. But it is well known 
that a considerable current backwards across the Atlantic has existed 
previously. Medical inquirers have drawn attention to the nostalgia 
of Russian Jews for their inhospitable native country. The numbers 
noted as having been in the United States before is a corroDoraiion of 
this assumption. 

Thus about 11 per cent, of the total immigration may be described 
as "deported and departed or here before." This percentage would 
remove another 150,000 from the Jewish additions to New York, re- 
ducing them to 882,189. But, further, the Industrial Removal Office has 
removed from New York, during the years 1900-1910, no less than 49,- 
574, leaving a grar»d total of Jews added to New" York since 1877 at 
832,615, or, with the 60,000 that were already there, the total number 
of Jews in New York would be 892,615 — nearly the same number that 
we reached from the deaths and marriages. 

But this is assuming that there has been no natural increase of 
the population during these 35 years, which is more absurd than any 
of Euclid's conclusions. 

It is rather difficult to give any plausible estimate of this natural 
increase with such a rapidly changing population as the Jewish dwellers 
in New York. The usual method of reckoning intercensal increase is 
by multiplying the geometrical mean of the two census numbers by the 
average excess of the births over deaths. (A. C. Waters, Jour. R. Stat. 
Soc. 1901.) This would only apply to a population normally increasing 
by excess of births over deaths, and not one like that of New York, 
where the accessions by immigration each year are probably six times 
as much as those by excess births. Yet it would be extremely interesting 
to ascertain this natural increase since, as we have seen above, the num- 
ber of those who have voluntarily left the city must equal this increase, 
or otherwise the original population plus the immigrants remaining here 
would not practically equal the present population, as estimated from 
the deaths and marriages. 

We may get some light upon this point by estimating the number of 
marriages throughout the period. There were 75,180 Jewish marriages in 
the decade 1901-1910. There must, therefore, have been at least 100,000 
marriages since the beginning of the period we are investigating, in 
1877, Statisticians reckon the fecundity of each marriage by dividing 



8 J JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. 

the birth rate by the marriage rate. In earlier Jewish marriages this 
used to work out at about 4.5 children per marriage. (Jacobs. Studies 
in Jewish Statistics, p. xiii.) In New York at present, as can be seen 
from Appendix B, the average fecundity of marriage is 2.7. Owing to 
the larger proportion of persons of marriageable age in the Jewish 
population, their fecundity is doubtless above the average of the city. 
Consequently, there have been at least 320,000 Jewish children born in 
New York between 1877 and 1911, but of these 50,000 would be removed 
by death, while of the original immigrants who had remained in New 
York at least 90,000 would have died in the thirty-four years. This 
would allow for a natural increase of 180,000 during that period, which 
would have been counterbalanced by the emigration of at least 150,000 
from the city. This figure does not seem at all unlikely, being only 
an average of 5,000 a year throughout the period. 

We are thus enabled to draw up a balance sheet of the Jewish 
population of New York since the year 1877 as follows : 

Original Jewish population of New York, 1877 60,000 

Arrived at port of New York, > 1881-1911 1,372,189 

Excess of Births over Deaths, 1877-1911 180,000 

1,612,189 

Left city at once, 1881-1911 350,000 

Deported, 1881-1911 14,000 

Departed, 1881-1911 112,000 

Migrated, 1881-1911 150,000 

In U. S. before 1881-1911 , 28,000 

Removed by Industrial Removal, 1901-1910 50,000 

704,000 



Balance, December, 1911 908,189 

This result is sufificiently near our previous estimate, founded on the 
number of deaths and marriages, to warrant a certain amount of confi- 
dence in the estimate. 

It will also enable us to get some idea of the proportion of Jews 
of New York that are natives of the United States, as compared with 
those that are foreign born. Of the 826,558 immigrants that arrived at 
the port between 1885 and 1905, 342,390 were adult males, 220,847 were 
adult females, the remaining 262,890 being children. The large excess of 
adult males over females (half as many again) should, one would have 
thought, have resulted in a large amount of intermarriages. But of this

there is very little evidence, and it is probable that a large proportion 
of those returning voluntarily abroad and of those who left the city 
were young bachelors, leaving an exceptionally large proportion of nubile 
young women in the city. This would account for the very high mar- 
riage rate, as is shown by the fact that over 75,000 Jewish marriages 
have been reported in the ten years 1901-1910. 

With the above assumptions it is possible to draw up the following 
estimate of the "movement" of the Jewish population of New York dur- 
ing the last 35 years as divided between the different sections of the 
population. 

Native 
1877 

Nos. enumerated ..." 60,000 

Deaths 40,000 

Births 80,000 

Increase 40,000 

Total, 1911 100,000 

Born in U. S 90,000 

According to this 10 per cent, of the Jews of New York at present are 
native born of native parents (as against 19.3 per cent, of the population 
in general), while another 20 per cent, are native born of foreign parent- 
age, making a total of 30 per cent, born in America, or nearly 300,000 out 
of the 900,000. 

It is even possible lo arrive at some conclusions as to the origin of 
the foreign parents since the United Hebrew Charities has recorded the 
nationality of those arriving at this port during the years 1884-1905 in 
the following percentages : 

Numbers. Per Cent. 

Russians 551,708 67.94 

Austrians 192,509 23.70 

Roumanians 43,757 5.38

English 3,603 .44 

Turks 2,074 .25 

Dutch 499 .06 

French 451 .05 

Swedes 421 .05 

Danes 261 .03 



10 JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. 

Roughly speaking, Russians are two-thirds, Austrians one-quarter, and 
Roumanians one-twentieth of the immigrants; or, of the whole Jewish 
population, Russians are five-ninths, and Austrians two-ninths. 

III. 

There is still another method by which one could get roughly — but 
very roughly, for reasons for which we will shortly see — the number 
of Jews at present residing in New York. I call this the "Cohen 
method," because, popularly speaking, it consists in finding the number of 
persons with the name Cohen, or other distinctively Jewish names in 
a purely Jewish list and then from this deducing the number of Jewish 
names in general lists of the inhabitants of New York like Trow's Di- 
rectory or the Telephone Book. This is to proceed by a process known 
technically among statisticians as "sampling" and is liable to all the 
imperfections to which that method is subject. In deducing from a few 
samples conclusions as to the totals from which they are drawn the errors 
in which one is likely to fall are increased in proportion to the fewness 
of the samples. Yet, as will be seen, this method enables us to come to 
some conclusions as to the distribution of the Jewish population of New 
York throughout the different boroughs, which is supplied by no other 
means, and for that purpose it may be worth while applying it to some 
extent. 

The first requirement was to get a comparatively long and representa- 
tive list of Jewish names ; this was given by the latest report of the 
United Hebrew Charities, which contains 4,498 names, a by no means 
satisfactory showing out of 180,000 families. But it is probably as rep- 
resentative a list of all the sections of the community as could be found 
and will therefore serve our purposes best. The ten names most numer- 
ously represented in this list are: 

Cohen 44 Weil 25 

Levy 64 Rothschild 24 

Stern 33 Seligman 24 

Frank 29 Strauss 23 

Rosenthal 26 Sachs 22 

These make 314 in all, or 7 per cent. Now, if we count up in num- 
bers the same names in Trow's Directory for Manhattan we get 6,906 
names (see Appendix C), which would seem to imply that there arc 



JEWISH POPULATION OF NEW YORK. H 

nearly 100,000 Jewish names in this directory. As this contains in all 
556,160 names this would seem to imply that there are 18.7 per cent, of 
Jews in Manhattan and The Bronx, or, according to the latest census 
528,462. Applying the same method to Upington's Directory of Brook- 
lyn and Queens the 1,368 Jewish names would appear to imply 10 per 
cent, of Jews, or approximately 200,000. 

At first sight this seems to give a much smaller total Jewish popu- 
lation for New York than we have reached by the deaths and marriages, 
and at the same time is opposed to general impressions as to the rela- 
tive proportions of Jews dwelling in Manhattan and Brooklyn. But 
what these figures signify is rather the much larger proportion of lodg- 
ers and moving population among the Jews of Manhattan as compared 
with those of Brooklyn, and on the other hand the larger proportion of 
persons having separate homes of their own among the Jews of Brook- 
lyn as compared with the general population of that Borough. 

If, therefore, we turn to the telephone book and apply the same 
method there to its three sections, Manhattan and The Bronx, Brooklyn 
and Queens, and Richmond, we may, at any rate, get some further in- 
formation as to the relative distribution of the Jewish population of 
New York in these three sections. It may clearly be assumed that the 
proportion of persons in sufficiently easy circumstances to have a tele- 
phone is the same in the five boroughs and that the number of those 
residing in them are proportional to those using telephones. 

Applying our "Cohen Method" to the telephone book we get the 
result that in Manhattan and The Bronx 2,258 of the ten most popular 
Jewish names are represented in that portion of the book, 561 in 
Brooklyn and Queens, and only 16 in Richmond. If we apply the same 
7 percentage to the names in the telephone book as we found to exist 
in the report of the United Hebrew Charities there should be, for ex- 
ample, a little over 200 Jewish telephone subscribers among the telephone 
subscribers in Richmond, about 8,000 names in Brooklyn, and about 
30,000 names in Manhattan and The Bronx, one-sixth of the whole, 
180,000. Of the 38,000 Jewish telephone subscribers there are thus about 
80 per cent, of the Jews of New York in Manhattan and The Bronx, 
19.5 per cent, in Brooklyn, and J^ of 1 per cent, in Staten Island. Ac- 
cording to this, we could divide up the 900,000 Jews in New York into 
the following three sections : 

Manhattan and The Bronx 720,000 

Brooklyn and Queens 175,500 

Staten Island , , 4,500 



12 JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. 

These results are necessarily rough but they, at any rate, coincide with 
general impressions and connot be so very far off the reality. 

It would, of course, be possible to make a much closer analysis of 
the figures given by the directories. Taking, for example, the 7,000 
addresses attached to the ten most popular Jewish names in Trow's Di- 
rectory for Manhattan it would be comparatively easy to find how many 
were situated east of Broadway and below Fourteenth Street, constituting 
the Lower East Side, east of Madison Avenue and between Eighty-sixth 
and 125th Streets, which may be described as the Upper East Side, 
between Fifty-ninth and Eighty-sixth Streets on the East Side, and 
University Heights on the West Side, constituting the "silk stocking dis- 
tricts" of New York Jewry, and finally the regions north of 125th Street, 
giving ihe Jewish inhabitants of The Bronx. A similar division could be 
made of the ten most popular Jewish names in Upington's Directory for 
Brooklyn, which would divide up the Jewish population of that borough 
into Brooklyn proper, Brownsville, Bath Beach and Queens. But the 
results reached from the examination of what is only, after all, 1 per 
cent, of the Jewish population would be so precarious that it scarcely 
seems worth while undertaking the trouble. 

I have now put before the reader most of the information I have 
been able to collect as to the Jewish population of New York at the 
beginning of 1912 and feel some confidence that my estimate of 900,000 
is not more than 1 or 2 per cent, from the truth, giving a leeway of about 
40,000 or 20,000 on either side of the 900,000. The figures coming 
from so many sources hang together so well that it is unlikely that they 
can be concentrated on any number far removed. If we assume a 
larger number the death rate would be too small ; if we assume one 
much smaller the marriage rate would be too high. We may, there- 
fore, assume, with some confidence, that the Jews of New York at the 
present moment are above 900,000 souls, of whom 725,000 are upon the 
Island of Manhattan. Half a million are directly or indirectly Russian, 
200,000 Austrian, mainly from Galicia. Thirty per cent, are native 
born, and of these again a third, or ten per cent, of the whole, are, 
in the language of the census, "native born of native parents."

The Purposes of the Jewish Community 

(KEHILLAH) 
OF NEW YORK CITY. 

Modeled in a measure after the Kehillahs, or Jewish Communi- 
ties, of the old world, and designed as the central, authoritative, and 
representative body of the Jews in New York, the Jewish Community 
(Kehillah) of New York City was organized at a constituent conven- 
tion of delegates representing five hundred (500) organizations, held 
in February, 1909. The need of such a central organization had 
long been felt, and several movements had previously been started 
looking towards the creation of such a body. Among the societies 
which responded to the call to the preliminary convention, issued on 
February 10, 1909, were not only large institutions and leading con- 
Tegations of the uptown section of the city, but also small lodges 
md chevras of the downtown district. Much enthusiasm prevailed at 
his, as at the subsequent conventions of the delegates. 

The Constitution adopted declared that "The purpose of the 
Jewish Community of New York City shall be to further the cause 
of Judaism in New York City, and to represent the Jews of this city 
with respect to all local matters of Jewish interest." It was further 
declared that "This organization shall not engage in any propa- 
ganda of a partisan political nature, or interfere with the autonomy of 
its constituent organizations." 

The Constitution then provided for membership in the Kehillah 
of the different organizations in New York, through their delegates, 
the number of individual members of each constituent body deciding 
the number of delegates to be sent to the Kehillah. 

The Constitution also determined the relations between the Jew- 
ish Community and the American Jewish Committee, and the twenty- 
five members elected by the Jewish Community as its Executive 
Committee, forms District No. XII, of the American Jewish Commit- 
tee, the American Jewish Committee having exclusive jurisdiction 
over all questions affecting the Jews generally, not merely of a local 
character, while to the Jewish Community was left the jurisdiction 
over all questions of a local character. 

Each constituent organization of the Kehillah was required to 
pay dues of five dollars ($5) per annum per delegate. 



PURPOSES OF THE JEWISH COMMUNITY 137 
(KEHILLAH). 

An Advisory Council of seventy (70) members was created, 
"which shall aid the Executive Committee with its advice and co- 
operation" in carrying out the work of the Kehillah. At the first 
meeting of the Executive Committee, which was held on April 17, 

1909, three standing committees were created — the Committee on 
Religious Organization, the Committee on Education, and the Com- 
mittee on Social and Philanthropic Work. 

RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATION: 

This Committee, or department of work, of the Kehillah has 
endeavored to restore to the Rabbis their proper authority in mat- 
ters of ritual and observance, to the end that proper supervision be 
provided in all matters requiring Rabbinical supervision, and that 
abuses pertaining to kashruth and other observances be eliminated. 
This committee has also devoted its attention to the matter of hav- 
ing the Jewish dietary laws observed in Jewish institutions, and 
encouraging the proper observance of the Sabbath and Jewish holi- 
days, of amicably settling disputes in regard to religious matters 
which arise in Jewish societies and congregations, etc. The We- 
most orthodox Rabbis of New York have, under the auspices oi the 
Kehillah, organized a Board of Rabbis, or Vaad Horabbonim, and 
this Board is now devoting itself to the problem of eliminating the 
abuses which are alleged to prevail in regard to the retail sale of 
kosher meat. One of the preliminary steps taken in that direction 
was the investigation of all the Jewish butcher shops in New York 
City. 

The Vaad Haborarim or Conciliation Committee of this Board 
devotes itself to the settlement of disputes such as were mentioned 
above, while other committees devote themselves to questions of a 
character that come within the jurisdiction of the Rabbis. 

JEWISH EDUCATION: 

The Kehillah, from the first, gave much attention to the problem 
of the Jewish education of Jewish children, and, in the winter of 

1910, a preliminary investigation was made of all the Talmud Torahs, 
Religious Schools, and Chedarim of Greater New York. This investi- 
gation disclosed the fact that out of one hundred and seventy thou- 
sand Jewish children attending the Public Schools, one hundred and 
twenty thousand were left without any religious instruction. Through 
the munificence of Mr. Jacob H. SchiflF and the New York Founda- 



138 JEWISH COMMUNAL DIBECTORY. 

tion, the Bureau of Education of the Kehillah was organized, and 
Doctor S. Benderly, of Baltimore, was appointed Director of this 
Bureau. 

The objects of the Bureau were outlined as follows: 

1. To study sympathetically and at close range all the Jewish 
educational forces in JNew \ ork City, including aline tiiose tLat re- 
strict themselves to religious instruction and those that look primarily 
to the Americanization of our youth, with a view to co-operation 
and the elimination of waste and overlapping. 

2. To become intimately acquainted with the best teachers and 
workers who are the mainstay of these institutions, and organize 
them for both their material and their spiritual advancement. 

3. To make propaganda through the Jewish press and other- 
wise, in order to acquaint parents witli tiie problem belore them 
and with the means for solving it. 

J* To operate one or two model schools for elementary pupils, 
for re purpose of working out the various phases of primary edu- 
catioJ, these schools to act also as concrete examples and guides 
to now existing Hebrew schools, which will undoubtedly avail them- 
selves of the text books, methods, appliances, etc., worked out in 
the model schools, as soon as public opinion shall have ripened. 

The Bureau has made a remarkable record during the first year 
of its activities, and a complete report of this work will be pre- 
sented at the third annual Convention of the Kehillah, which will 
be held on February 24 and 25. The success which the Bureau has 
achieved testifies to the need which has long existed for this work. 

In order to introduce system into the schools, and to set up a 
uniform standard of religious education, the Bureau is preparing a 
series of text books and other literature for the use of Jewish 
schools. Realizing that the schools must have a sound financial 
basis, a good staff of teachers, and proper school organization to 
procure the desired results, the Bureau is endeavoring to establish 
a Jewish Education Fund, calculated to bring in from subscriptions 
about three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000) per annum by the 
end of ten years and thereafter. Towards this the sum of almost 
$50,000 per annum has already been raised. 



PURPOSES OF THE JEWISH COMMUNITY 139 
(KEHILLAH). 

In addition to the attempt to standardize whatever existing 
schools are ripe tor standardization, and to nelp estabusu new scnoois 
particularly in the sections wnere none exist, tue bureau nas estab- 
lished a Board of License, consisting of hve examiners, representing 
the various educational institutions of iNJew ^ orK, co-operating witn 
the bureau, tor tne purpose ot issuing temporary certmcates or per- 
manent license to tnose teachers qualined lor tne work. 

A careiul study ot the unances oi tne most important Jewish 
schools of J.\ew l ork has been issued by tue liureau under tue title, 
"A burvey ot tne i^inancial btaius ol tne jewisii Keagious bcuoois 
of ^ew 1 ork," and tue results ol an exnaustive educational study 
will appear in a publication winch is now in press, and wmch will 
be Known as "A briet Keport of liiirty-one <>^onierences neld by 
tue iainiud ioran ir^rincipals in Conjunction with tiie bureau of 
Jiducation." 

in connection with its other educational work, the Kehillah has 
arranged two series of lectures on pubac queotious, and uas given 
Its auention to tue matter ot brin^iug Jewisu students in the Col- 
leges aucl Universities ol tue city under tne influence ot Jewish 
teacuings. 

SOCIAL AND PHILANTHROPIC WORK: 

Through this department the Kehillah has given attention to 
the social wehare ot the Jewish population of New VorK, and has 
endeavored to bring about co-ordination between the various philan- 
turopic agencies wuich are coping with the problem of Jewish de- 
pendents and defectives. 

An Employment Bureau for Handicapped Jews has been estab- 
lished and conducted with the co-operation of the United Hebrew 
Charities and the Jewish Protectory and Prisoners' Aid Society, and 
through this Bureau work has been found for considerable numbers 
of persons who are either handicapped physically, or who, through 
lack of knowledge of the language or of the country or through other 
circumstances, were incapable of finding work. 

Particular attention l.as been given to the matter of homeless 
children wi o Lave been housed in non-Jewish institutions, and a 
considerable number of them have, through the help of tiie Com- 
mittee, been transierred to Jewish institutions. Investigations have 
been made in rej^ard to the proposed formation of new institutions 
with a view of discouraging any duplication of work. 



140 JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. 

OTHER ACTIVITIES: 

In making its plans for the furtherance of Judaism and Jewish 
interests in this city, the Kehillah has endeavored, first, to ascertain 
the facts in regard to the life of the Jewish population of this me- 
tropolis, and with this end in view, a number of investigations were 
made. It is hoped that ultimately there will be established a Statis- 
tical Bureau which will gather and have at its command all the 
facts and figures pertaining to our communal life, and information 
in regard to the various religious, educational, and philanthropic 
activities of the Jews of New York. As a step in the direction of 
gathering this important data, the present Directory is issued. 

Many requests for information in regard to Jewish institutions 
and Jewish communal activities of New York come to the office of 
the Kehillah daily, and these have shown the need of accumulating 
and sysic;..ati/!.I.ig all the data covering our communal life. To the 
office of the Kehillah are also sent various questions of dispute which 
arise in Jewish organizations, and persons who are confronted with 
various difficulties come to us for advice and assistance. We have 
become a sort of clearing house, directing many Jews to various 
institutions and agencies, the existence of which was not known 
to them.

THE INDEPENDENT ORDER FREE 
SONS OF ISREAL 

a benevolent and fraternal organization which, after a 
thorough examination by the most eminent public account- 
ants, has been declared the soui dest financially of any 
fraternal institution without exception in the United States, 
takes pleasure in setting forth some cogent reasons wh}' men 
of Hebraic faith should affiliate themselves with the vari- 
ous lodges of this Order, and why such a coalition would 
be a mutually compensating and desirable consummation. 

Upon the 'payment of monthly dues, which although 
sufficient to meet the requirements of the Order, are really 
insignificant, a member is insured in the sum of One 
Thousand Dollars or Five Hundred Dollars, and can also 
participate in the Sick Benefit Fund, which entitles him to 
certain weekly payments whenever illness incapacitates 
him from following his usual vocation. 

The phrase "As solid as the rock of Gibraltar" has 
frequently been brought into requisition, but never more 
deservedly than in the case of the Free Sons of Isreal, 
which since its inception has expended thousands upon 
charity, paid out $5,989,000 in death claims, never tock 
advantage of any technicality to evade a payment and 
stands to-day with a reserve fund of $1,090,000.

Order Brith Abraham was founded, that has resulted in enriching 
the country with a chain of four hundred Lodges, crowned with the 
precious jewels of HARMONY, WISDOM and JUSTICE, which 
have served to strengthen the bonds of the common brotherhood 
and to promote the principles of Charity, Benevolence and Humanity. 

This Order has paid out nearly eight millions of dollars to widows 
and orphans. We have also paid out through our Lodge system, 
sick benefits, funeral expenses and relief to the needy and iin fortu- 
nate members nearly four millions of dollars. 

Our Order, with its splendid Lodge system all over the country, 
has been and is a blessing to the Jewish people and through it they 
learned the language of the country; they have become Americanized 
and acquainted with the new conditions and customs that confronted 
them; in short, the Lodge Room became a school for its members, 
fitting them for their duties as American citizens and helping them 
in their every day life. 

This Order solicits Jews all over the country either to affiliate as 
members into our Lodges or to come in as a body, under a new 
charter. 

All applications for a new charter for a Lodge, or any informa- 
tion regarding the Order, should be addressed to

mon Jewish purposes and to establish better co-operation 
between the various communal agencies of this Jewish

next meeting. 

And not only organizations, but individuals, can and 
should take part in and support the work of the Kehillah. 
Individuals can become associated with the Kehillah by 
becoming members at large and pay one dollar ($1.00) per 
annum, or by becoming contributors who pay from two to 
ten dollars ($2.00 to $10.00) per annum. Members at large 
and contributors, as well as the delegates of the affiliated 
organizations, are supplied with the reports and the litera- 
ture which is issued by the Jewish Community.
